The Tie That Binds

The American Indian Cultural Center & Museum is a place like no other illustrating how essential American Indian people have been to the State, Nation and World. In 1994 the Oklahoma legislature created the Native American Cultural and Educational Authority, a state agency authorized to develop the American Indian Cultural Center & Museum generating awareness and understanding of the history of tribes and their relationship to Oklahoma today.The American Indian Cultural Center & Museum will enrich the quality of life, culturally and economically or all visitors, the Oklahoma City community and the region at large.

The way an agency operates conveys a tremendous amount about its purpose and mission. The Native American Cultural and Educational Authority is cultivating a positive and attractive human environment for Oklahoma's workforce. The agencies core values and behaviors set the stage for excellent customer service to visitors and community while operating a fiscally responsible museum and cultural center. The agency has assembled a world class team of designers, consultants and staff who are all committed to the highest ethical practices.
